<\/p>\n

it\u2019s always the same with these assholes
\nled once again
\nby an all too familiar tune
\nmemory fades faster than chalk on a sidewalk
\nshifting from side to side
\nit\u2019s outrage and ejaculation
\nteam vs team
\nwith no real identity
\nit makes me sick
\nat least i know who i\u2019m not<\/p>\n

1984 is about ten years overdue
\ni tried to warn you
\npower breeds
\nand seeds
\nthis corrupt institution<\/p>\n

dream
\nfeed
\nscholastic team
\ngangsters and wizards
\nled by greed<\/p>\n

common sense died
\nwith the birth of public education<\/p>\n

hit with the end of an age
\nthe freak show resumes
\nand all this information
\nwill soon be closed by
\ncloset fascists<\/p>\n

we now see the coming
\nof war and poverty
\nfirsthand
\nwith
\nsecond-hand humanity
\nand the majority
\nwill pass their immoral judgement<\/p>\n

exclamation!
\nembrace
\nthe double edged sword of technology
\nrobots will monitor
\nyour every move
\nas freedom\u00a0 is given a terminal diagnosis<\/p>\n

clowns on camera
\nand the crazy just keep rolling in
\ntv ratings will soar
\nas comedians and unhappy souls
\nare given one line sound bytes
\nto regurgitate to the masses
\nit\u2019s an unrepentant season finale
\nto the greatest reality show
\nhistory has ever known<\/p>\n

it\u2019s clear
\nthe rebels are wrong
\nall suited up with nowhere to go
\nas they beg for longer chains<\/p>\n

it\u2019s the same old song and dance
\nheard time and time again
\nas fat dumb automatons
\nwalk in unison
\ntax cattle wandering
\nin a state of perpetual enslavement
\nyet they continue
\nthe useless cry of
\nchange<\/p>\n

so go
\nworship your master(s)
\nthe screams will become clearer
\nas vices become more scarce<\/p>\n

the word handed down is harsh
\nand karma is a bitch<\/p>\n
